New Roundabout
With easy wheelchair access, the new roundabout in the play area, offers endless twirling fun for all abilities. Happy swirling and do tweet us your roundabout selfies!
Woodland Learning Zone
Following in-store voting in Tesco, we are very pleased to tell you that we have been awarded a £12,000 Bags of Help grant! Thank you to everyone who supported us!
Work has already begun to create trails within the woodland thanks to East Lothian Council's Criminal Justice Team.
Robin Wood of Wildchild Designs has been commissioned to carve a storytelling bench, seat and an entrance way. Robin has worked extensively with the Woodland Trust to create the secret homes of the Glingbobs and Tootlflits in Pressmennan Wood so, as well as being sustainable and locally sourced, you can expect something rather magical!

Heritage Labyrinth
Sadly, our labyrinth project didn't make it through to the finals of Aviva Community Fund. However, we are delighted for our neighbours, Preston Lodge RFC, whose bid for child-sized equipment made it to the next stage and we wish them luck. Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote and share the information.
Lothian Folklore Challenge
If you read 'Tim's Tales' in the East Lothian Courier on 24 November, you might have spotted our Clootie Tree! Storyteller Tim Porteus had the great idea to give stories this Christmas and would love to receive folk tales associated with East Lothian places (including Cuthill Park!). You can send your stories to Tim at timporteus@hotmail.com. If you need inspiration, take a look at the Woodland Trust 'Make Believe Game' page.
